Good day all, may be a bit of a big ask this one but, has anyone got a (up-to-date-ish) list of the current resident F-15C/Es? If anyone can oblige I would be most grateful.... Many thanks in advance, Daz

Sorry but could I ask for a little conformation and or clarity on the coding.
Do they refer to colours? LN bk/y LN is Lakenheath I think. Are the others the Squadron Colours for the tails perhaps.
Cheers
Clive

LN is for Lakenheath,bk is black,y is yellow,bl is blue,wt is white,r is red (which refer to the fin-tip colours-each squadron has a different colour.) Hope this helps.

Cheers flaps, Just looked out the window at a jet and confirmed its serial with the codes and they are the colours.
Once again thanks for the conformation.

Most (if not all,maybe someone can confirm this ?) USAF bases operate a similar system with a variety of different colours.Some squadrons just use one colour but some use two.
